I have the same problem. I cannot get it to work. I have changed everything multiple times. Here is what I have for a DB:
jrbarn32_blog
Users in blog
jrbarn32_blog (Privileges: ALL PRIVILEGES)
Connection Strings
Perl $dbh = DBI->connect(“DBI:mysql:jrbarn32_blog:localhost”,”jrbarn32_blog”,”<PASSWORD HERE>”);
PHP $dbh=mysql_connect (“localhost”, “jrbarn32_blog”, “<PASSWORD HERE>”) or die (‘I cannot connect to the database because: ‘ . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db (“jrbarn32_blog”);
Here is what I have for a config file:
<?php
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define(‘jrbarn32_blog’, ‘wordpress’); // The name of the database
define(‘jrbarn32_blog’, ‘username’); // Your MySQL username
define(‘thompson01’, ‘password’); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value
// Change the prefix if you want to have multiple blogs in a single database.
$table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // example: ‘wp_’ or ‘b2’ or ‘mylogin_’
// Change this to localize WordPress. A corresponding MO file for the
// chosen language must be installed to wp-includes/languages.
// For example, install de.mo to wp-includes/languages and set WPLANG to ‘de’
// to enable German language support.
define (‘WPLANG’, ”);
/* Stop editing */
define(‘ABSPATH’, dirname(__FILE__).’/’);
require_once(ABSPATH.’wp-settings.php’);
?>
Does not work at all and I have changed it up time and time again using IP’s, root logins.. all sorts of things.. no luck.
Any idea?
I am using 1.5.1
